I change my phone once a year when I'm offered a free upgrade from
Orange. Most people do don't they? I normally have to upgrade because
the buttons on the number pad stop working properly and on the 6600
which I just upgraded from, the call button only functioned when I
pressed it really really hard - to the extent that it hurt my finger too
much.

All good points Steve.
How often are we going to change our phones? Not that often I think.
Cheers,
